The new Baylor Scott & White Primary Care at the Star will offer free physicals for FISD students on May 19.

On top of the 300,000 square-foot medical and health facility and the free physical exams, BS&W also offers FISD students the chance to participate in a Movement Efficiency Screening that deals with the risk of injury while playing sports.

The new sports medicine facility next to Cowboys’ world headquarters will offer a wide range of opportunities for student athletes as part of a collaboration between an NFL team, a health system and a school district.

With a focus on preventing injuries and keeping people healthy, the goal of Baylor Scott & White Sports Therapy & Research at The Star is to make North Texas the safest place in the country to play sports,” President and CEO, Baylor Scott & White Health Joel Allison said in a Baylor Scott & White Health news release.  “This initiative is a perfect complement to Baylor Scott & White’s broader strategy of serving communities, with a focus on overall health and wellness.”
